Q: Is kaolin clay the same as white clay?
A: Yes. Kaolin clay is commonly also called white clay or kaolin white.

Q: Why is the colour sometimes more off-white than bright white?
A: Kaolin is a natural mineral ingredient, so the shade can vary slightly from white to off-white without affecting its general cosmetic usefulness.
